0026 Wandering during the virus

 0026 Wandering during the Virus
 27th September 2020
Now I don't have to work on the VW ........
 
With most of the work on Clementine now finished, I am trying to drive her as much as possible in order to get some miles on her.  1000 kms will be enough, and then I will take it back down to Steve at CCC and we will do a full "first" service, and check all the suspension and steering for tightness.  We also have a few other items to fix, like the reversing lights etc.  Until then, I am using her almost every day, and checking out things as necessary as I go.

Everything finally comes together !

Clementine on the road

First thing required to get Clementine on the road was to get Third Party Insurance and a Safety Certificate.  So on Monday I went down to RACQ and arranged the insurance.   Then, instead of getting a temporary permit to drive the car to an inspection station, I found someone through Steve at Classic Car Clinic who does on-site inspections, and at 11 am on Tuesday 11th, Matt arrived to inspect the car. We went through the car, and he checked everything underneath, and half an hour later I had my Safety Certificate.
